Summary
Dark Maiden is a horror fantasy thriller by Ian Conner. The story begins in the 16th century when a maiden captivates four sisters with her beauty. Their great desire to acquire beauty for themselves drove them to follow the maiden’s request to bring twin babies in exchange for granting their wish to be beautiful. The Two Spears and Four Claws clans found out about this wicked happening and banished the dark maiden. Unfortunately, it cannot be destroyed. Thus, it keeps returning every 20 years. In the present time, only the two clans are aware that such evil exists, and the evil is back for a new victim in the name of Rebecca who is pregnant with Carlyle’s twins.
Review
Such a dark tale to read in just two days! I had to shut my vivid imagination to lessen the flashes of gory details that invaded my mind. This story is not for the faint heart and definitely not for the pregnant ones, especially if you’re having twins. The funny thing is that I cringe a lot but still continue reading it anyway because it was that gripping. You won’t be able to put it down until it’s finished. Loved the tribe clans! Not much into Native American folklore but this book made me curious and interested. Overall, I’m giving it 5 out of 5 stars. It was twisted, highly imaginative, unpredictable, and unputdownable. Highly recommended to readers who love scary stories.
